    I’ve been trying to write a couple blog posts, but have not been able to do so as I can’t get any of my pictures to upload. I keep getting HTTP Error. Since I’m very new to this, I’ve tried searching on this topic but the suggestions are not understood. If in layman’s terms someone could help me, that’d be much appreciated.

    A big cause of this is the way the server is using image magick for the uploaded images.

    If you have access to an .htaccess file, you can simply add the following code at the top:

    SetEnv MAGICK_THREAD_LIMIT 1

    That seems to work well for most people.

    Hi @scott_mi,

    I am trying everything but I can’t seem to find the .htaccess file. Where do I find it? I went to ‘Appearance’ then ‘Editor’ and I still don’t see it!

    Thanks!

    Hey,
    so in cPanel
    1) Click the File Manager button located in the Files section of cPanel.
    2) Select the Home Directory and the Show Hidden Files option, then click Go.
    Now you should be able to see the .htaccess file

    I had the same issue and resolved it by making sure my server was running php 5.6
    For my share hosting I had to add ”AddHandler application/x-httpd-php56 .php” to the front of the .htaccess file so that the server knows to run php 5.6

    I hope this helps
